Blue Zoo nominated for multiple BAFTAs!

Oct. 24 2017

Don't you love it when hard work pays off? Especially with not one, not two, but THREE BAFTA nominations!

INDEPENDENT PRODUCTION COMPANY OF THE YEAR

We're thrilled to be recognised for our contribution to the industry, with a nomination for Independent Production Company Of The Year! We're now in our 17th year, and are immensely proud of our ever-growing, ever-evolving studio, that embraces new technology and continually produces stories and characters that capture young imaginations. Thanks to our amazing team we continue to thrive at the forefront of the children’s entertainment industry.

DIGBY DRAGON / PRE-SCHOOL ANIMATION

Digby's one of our studio's favourites, and when it debuted on Nick Jr. in the UK in July it scored the best-ever weekday launch for a new show! Digby's been nominated for the ever-popular Pre-school Animation category, up against pre-school heavyweights like Peppa Pig. Favourite Digby fact is that more adults watch Digby at 8.15am than any other commercial channel!

NUMBERBLOCKS / LEARNING CATEGORY

Following the overwhelming success of Alphablocks, it was no surprise that sister-show Numberblocks was received so well when it debuted back in January. It's a great surprise, however, to be nominated for the competitive BAFTA 'learning' category - and we're delighted!

Numberblocks is designed to change how children think about numbers. Unlike other numbers shows, it keeps everything visual and really shows how numbers work. Numberblocks is made with the assistance of the National Centre for Excellence in Teaching of Mathematics.
